Oh, I see, that's pretty cool. I always liked that about movie 8, I was kind of surprised to see Strong World had the Japanese track unaltered.

Well, technically it was altered since the original ending song wasn't included, but what surprised you about that? Were you expecting chunks of the Japanese dialogue to just be missing?
-
I hear ya, what's up with usps lately? Mine is also still in Transit :getlost:
What's going on? Still didn't get it. You? Last update shows it departing Iowa.

No nothing like that, I meant that I thought they would edit the One Piece logo and take out the Japanese language and replace it with English, specifically for the opening scene.

Nope, not yet. I'm hoping tomorrow I get it :sad:

Dude same thing with mine. Hasn't updated since the 20th and still shows an expected delivery date of yesterday…
-

Called USPS. They won't do anything until after mail delivery tomorrow. Technically, they have five days to deliver it, even if it's priority two-day mail. After tomorrow, we have to report it lost.
How aggravating.

You guys should email rightstuf. I already did. They will make the USPS calls to sort it out.

If it's not here by monday I might do that.

Good news! My package just updated, and it is at my local post office now. I should get it Saturday!
-
I'll have Voyage 4 today.
-
Ah. Mine updated as at least being in the state. Guess it'll come Monday.

So uh, clips anyone?

So is the repeat of brina's behind the boat feature a mistake or is it on every one's DVD if it is a mistake what is the special feature suppose to be?
I figure it's a mistake. The title of the extra is "One Piece In the Booth with Brina Palencia" (I assume is recording in the booth extra). However the extra actually included was "On the Boat Behind the Scenes of One Piece with Brina Palencia" (which is the interview)

so their never was a inside the booth feature just a repeat of the behind the boat feature wow

Sounds to me like they put the wrong video file on. Worst quality checkers ever.
–- Update From New Post Merge ---
Someone should notify funimation.

If they bothered to punish their quality checkers, we wouldn't be having a these minor problems for the past two years.

You'd be better off waiting until someone uploads the episodes online.

Wow, Richard Epcar was listed as an extra in episode 302. If he came down to Texas to do some recording, perhaps he'll have a semi-important role in an upcoming arc….

It's beyond me that if there is almost anything wrong w/ the quality (audio or visual-wise) of an anime release, I can see it instantly. And sadly for most cases where I notice any form of mishaps: the audio goes slightly out of sync w/ the video for awhile, a millisecond of video or audio distortion, or accidental repeat of a few seconds of video footage, etc., these kinda things are usually permanently a part of a release as these problems have been in multiple replacements and/or friend's copies. Yet, these kind of mistakes are able to pass by these "official quality checkers"? Maybe the quality checkers just don't care. If all they do is just sit down and watch a copy of a DVD/BD to see if it was printed and encoded correctly, they're obviously not paying attention. If they get paid to just sit on their asses and watch anime to make sure there are no problems, then I'd be a better quality checker than these jokers. XP

Yeah i noticed that recently too on voyage 2 and 3.
Its not much but still…Well maby its not something too worry about if its 1 ,2 or maby 3 things.
But if this stuff continue's as example on voyage 5, we should notify FUNimation about this.
( or tell Mr. Mcfarland if he can do anything about it i mean)Offtopic demonkicksanji ur youtube channel is cool!!
keep on the great work! -
Episode 300 commentary features Mike McFarland, Christopher Sabat, and Alex Organ.
At one point, Sabat brings up the original casting of CP9 from 2007 for the video game, and Mike mentions that Jerry Jewel was passed over for Kaku because they have future plans for him. Brook was most likely cast already at this point, so perhaps there's another upcoming character Jewel might fit in for?

keep on the great work!I think Funimation should be notified sooner rather than later to make sure this doesn't happen again. I enjoy the special features, and having one less is kind of a drag. Maybe if they're made aware of this, they can put the feature that SHOULD have been on this set in the next one along w/ the other planned ones, meaning we'd get an extra special feature. XD
Also, thanks for the kind words. Despite all the crap Google has been putting YT users through, I still enjoy doing what I do on YT. ^^

Right now I think any of us would be better quality checkers than theirs right now.

^ Yea if Funimation read this forum they could get a good feel for what the fans think. Plus they don't have to pay us :p
-
The voice acting in the final episodes of Enies Lobby was superb. Colleen really cranked it up a notch against Lucci.
312 was amazing. And most of the flashback was re-recorded.

Ooh, how nice! The textless Crazy Rainbow!! opening in the Extras menu is actually the Tackey & Tsubasa version. So they did include it for us. Props to FUNi.

Captain Berry Good - J.C. Miller

i have a set from amazon on hold myself,but a teaser would still be nice to hold me down.

This post is deleted!

Was I the only one that busted out laughing when lucci told luffy that "this is the form I used to beat you in galley LA". And luffy's response "yeah well I was hungry that day" and colleen's delivery made it that funny
-
Wow, that Jet Gatling was delivered superbly, I wonder what Colleen's throat must have felt like after doing that scene

Just a reminder people, it's not a big issue if you do but try to refrain from posting links to sites that stream "One Piece" illegally. We're not trying to enforce copyright law or anything but this part of the forums is all about supporting the official product. There are already many ways to support "One Piece" legally, without using a pirate site, including free streaming.
If you're not sure if a site you're thinking of linking is legit feel free to inquire about it. If "One Piece" isn't available in your region then unfortunately we can't really provide you an alternative, just try to support any official product that is or will become available in your territory and let the licensors know you want it. Either way we just want to discourage piract here and encourage things like FUNimation DVDs and the simulcast on Crunchyroll.

If anything should be pirated, it's One Piece.

Does anyone know if
! Blueno rescuing CP9 with his air doors was ever adapted in the anime? Or is that in the cover stories of the manga only?

So…I know this is kinda random but, do you guys think Funimation will do what Toei did and get the actor for Naruto to voice Sabo when they dub Luffy's past?
Not that it's what I'd want that to happen, I mean if there's a person already at Funimation that's better suited for the job (which I'm sure there is), then by all means cast that person as Sabo.
However I am just a little curious to know if it can be done or not.

As amazing as that would be, Maile Flanagan doesn't do much anime work outside of Naruto. Besides, she's located in California, so I'm going to say no.
But… FUNimation has a huge pool of actors. I'm thinking Brittney Karbowski (think Black*Star from Soul Eater), Brina Palencia (think Georgie from Crayon Shin-Chan), or even Laura Bailey (but I don't think she works much for FUNi anymore) could pull it off just as well, if not better.

I could see Brittney or Laura, but for Brina Mike says he wants to try and keep the Strawhats cast as 1 character so they have freedom in their range. Although if there is anyone who could be cast as multiple people it would be Brina or Colleen, considering how different Chopper/Luffy are from their natural voices.

Wait, isn't Patrick Seitz from Cali too? Or am I mistaken?
Ah well, if she can't do it then it's no big deal really, though I think it would be pretty damn cool if they could make it happen somehow :P
But yeah, someone already at Funi would more than likely prove to be a perfectly suitable Sabo.
-
He is, but that's a special case. When he was originally cast as Franky for the video game he wasn't.
-
honestly i don't think she could pull it off. my personal opinion,i think Brittney Karbowski,as one mentioned earlier,would definitely be a nice fit.
-
So, I bit the bullet and bought Strong World and Voyage 4. Was gonna wait for my local Fry's Electronics to stock them, but I wanted them now XP
-
I'm sure she could do it just don't think it would happen naruto is the only thing she does when it comes to anime

To add to that Funimation aren't going to cast Maile as Sabo just because Junko does Naruto in the Japanese. They're aren't like that at the core of their dubbing process, but if Maile is up to it and fits the Sabo personality then they'd have no qualms about it. It's just about whether or not she'd be the best V.A to cast as Sabo, and if somebody else does it better then so be it. I mean its not like we have Sonny as Luffy because Tanaka voiced Krillin in the Japanese Dub of DBZ

if she did do it I wonder if she would just use her naruto voice since she's only been him I don't no her range

Still waiting to hear back from Rightstuf for when the will ship out my copy of Voyage 4. Hopefully soon.
On future VAs: If they're planning on using Jerry Jewell in the future, I can see him as a good fit for Kuma. I'm also interested to see the direction they go with Moria too.
On Naruto's VA doing Sabo, I personally don't see it. The raspy voice would be distracting. I would just be thinking of lines like, "That right Ace! Believe it!" But perhaps there could be a better suited role for her in the future.

i doubt the rasp would bother me although if she made him sound exactly like naruto I would kind of be annoyed even though I like her as Naruto

Finally got the set. Stupid USPS. Gonna watch the first three episodes if I get the time tonight. All my free time has been devoted to this new (amazing) Zelda game.
